Get ready for a heartwarming return to classic farming! Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home arrives on the Google Play Store August 23rd, bringing you to the charming but neglected village of Alba. Your mission? Revive this sleepy town and restore its former glory.
From City Lights to Village Revival
Alba's facing a crisis: an aging population and an exodus of young people to the city. That's where you come in! You'll need to revitalize the village, attracting tourists with your bountiful harvests and expanding your farm.
Prepare for a busy life: planting, harvesting, caring for animals, fishing, and even mining! But it's not all hard work. The game introduces a "happiness" mechanic, crucial for village growth and attracting new residents. Participate in village events and festivals to boost your happiness levels.
And of course, no Harvest Moon game is complete without romance! Court eligible bachelors and bachelorettes, each with unique personalities.
A Classic Farming Experience
Let's address the 2019 Harvest Moon: Mad Dash. While enjoyable, its puzzle-focused gameplay deviated from the series' farming roots. But rest assured, Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home is a return to form.
Natsume's CEO, Hiro Maekawa, promises a true back-to-basics experience. No more puzzles – just pure, unadulterated farming fun, complete with all the familiar Harvest Moon features. Check out the recently released Harvest Moon: Home Sweet Home trailer on YouTube for a sneak peek at the visuals.
